All -- Thanks in advance for your help. I have a '32 3W coupe. I have made glass templates out of 1/4" masonite (luan), and have installed them in the car with the window channels, glass channel, rubber setting channel and window regulator. I made the glass template so its bottom edge is...

Thanks in advance for your help. Can anyone tell me how many drain holes were in the bottom of 3W coupe doors? And the size/diameter of the holes? Also, would someone be wiling to share a picture of the routing of the rear window drain to the floorboard? Thank you very much -- Richard
